What would you do?
Venue: Ramada Jarvis Wetherby Hotel, Leeds Road, Wetherby, LS22 5HE
Speaker: Stephanie Clark, ACMA
Whether you are a qualified or part-qualified management accountant, you will have encountered a range of experiences in your professional career to date; some of which you will have resolved successfully, and others maybe not so successfully. With this in mind, this event has been designed to encourage members to share these experiences so that members can learn from those that were resolved successfully. In groups, you will discuss more suitable resolutions for those experiences that had a less successful result and present your solutions to the wider group. So in addition to learning from each other, this is a great opportunity to practice your presentation skills and network with fellow members. The evening will be facilitated by Stephanie Clark ACMA, CIMA West Yorkshire Branch board member, but the main interest will come from your take on the scenarios that you will be presented with to discuss, and the solutions generated from your discussions.
No charge

Realising benefits from projects and programmes – a fool’s errand? Followed by AGM
Venue: Leeds Metropolitan University, Room 221/2, Northern Terrace, off Woodhouse Lane (behind Queen Square), Leeds, LS2 8AJ.
Speaker: Stephen Jenner and Peter Glynne
Research shows that many organisations still struggle to demonstrate a return on their investments in change. Addressing this calls for a three-pronged approach – ensuring we are clear about the anticipated benefits from an investment; going beyond hurdle rates of return to capturing all forms of potential value; and active management to exceed the forecast The challenge starts with the business case – failing projects and programmes don’t have brilliant business cases, and the evidence shows that too often they contain ‘assumptions that masquerade as facts’. Steve will outline the research evidence, the possible explanations, and solutions which call for a radically different approach to the way organisations approach the realisation of benefits from their investments in change.
Fee payable: Members £10.00 / Non-members £15.00
